If you've read my philosophy of color blog post, you know that I'm not a fan of products that permanently change the structure of the hair. Permanent color can do significant damage to hair over time, whereas demi-permanent color is almost completely damage free. The same may be said for permanent smoothing treatments versus semi-permanent.

No matter what you might hear or read in Keratin smoothing adds, they can do long-term damage to the hair shaft. I have several clients in the process of growing out damage (some up to 20-30% breakage) from keratin straightening, both clients I've tried it on, and clients who came to me with the damage from other stylists.

BUT, we can now offer a wonderful semi-permanent 3 day blowout as a simple $20 add on service! Simply Smooth Magic Potion is a semi-permanent blow-out designed to keep your hair smooth (either straight or curly) for up to 3 shampoos. That's right, when we say three days we mean shampoo days! And if you would like to extend the treatment at home a daily styling, temporary (1 shampoo), version is available for at home use!
